Josh Gordon

I saw an interesting debate on another site about whether the Skins should consider drafting Josh Gordon, formerly from Baylor, in the supplemental draft.
The pro's are the guy is a physical beast. 6-4, 225, runs between a 4.3-4.4 40. I watched him at Baylor RGIIIs junior year and thought he was a sure fire first round talent for the next year.
The cons are he left Baylor for Utah after that year due to pot use he was about to be suspended for. He never played at Utah due to the transfer. I read after it happened that RGIII went to coach Briles to ask for him to get another chance. Obviously that didn't work out.
It seems he's anywhere from a 4th to 7th round supplemental pick. Should the Skins take a chance he has learned from his mistake or take a pass? Is it worth giving up a next year pick knowing we are already short? RGIII and he had quite a connection his junior year.
